Ogre faced spider, Deinopis spinosa :)
#art #bugart #spider #furryart #digitalart
A digital drawing of an anthropomorphic spider. The spider has a brown head and it is hairy. It has six eyes, two huge front facing ones, two small ones on either side of the head and two small eyes beneath the big eyes. All of the eyes are black. There are orange hairs surrounding the big eyes and they look like eyelashes. The spider has its head bent downwards. You can see a bit of its fangs and you can also see its pedipalps. which are also hairy. It wears a pink t shirt.

I don't get people who say they support artists and hate ai "art" but then turn around and use ai generated memes, gifs, shitposts etc.
The technology used to create that stuff is the exact same technology you dislike!!! It's hypocrisy.

It is absolutely criminal how little funding is given to biodiversity research, yet biodiversity and natural ecosystems, are what keeps us alive.

Rant(?): I hate it when people only care about non human animals if the animal is "useful" to humans/ when people are unable to appreciate animals beyond what humans might use them for.
I just find it sad that we share a planet with so many interesting species and yet some people don't care unless-

A digital drawing of a humanoid monster. It has grey wrinkly skin, a black hooked beak that is being held wide open and the inside of its beak contains a smaller pair of jaws. The jaws are human like and fleshy with yellow teeth and saliva. The drawing is only the head and shoulders of the monster.

WIP
I usually just draw bugs but like I've mentioned here before, I do draw other things aswell.
Personally a big fan of scary monsters and demons and whatnot, they're fun to draw. :P

Anyways here's a bird demon I'm drawing.
#art #oc #digitalart #horrorart #demonart #artist
A digital drawing. It is unfinished. The drawing is of the head of a strange humanoid creature. It has grey skin and a large hook beak, like that of a bird. No eyes are visible. Inside the beak, there is another pair of jaws, much smaller then the first. This pair is fleshy and human like with yellow teeth. The beak is fully shaded and the rest is still not shaded yet.

From 2024, a traditional drawing of a rove beetle person, based off the genus Astenus. :))
#art #bugart #furryart #artist
A traditional drawing of an anthropomorphic beetle character. She is a rusty red colour with orange coloured pointy mandibles. She has two long antenna on her head and has a hairy abdomen. She wears a blue shirt with a white human skull on it, a green jacket with spikes and blue ish purple trousers. She has white and pink trainers with black laces. She keeps both of her arms in her pockets and looks to the side smiling.

Personally, a minor pet peeve I have when it comes to insect character design is when a moth character is very fluffy and has very hairy antenna regardless of species and sex. It really depends on what kind of moth your character is based off, not all moths share the exact same characteristics.

It’s probably weird to say that, but I do have a lot of personal attachment to cockroaches. When I draw 1 roach, there are always another 10 more I wanna do! But there’s only so much canvas space so I had to make choices … swipe to see the species list!

Also, I'm definitely going to have a bunch of materials left over after this so I have been considering for a while now if I should make a premade suit head and sell it using what I have left.
I feel like it would be such a waste to not use up my scrap foam and stuff.

Ordered some neodymium magnets and ordered some more fleece fabric yesterday. I'm hoping the fabric arrives before next Monday because I really want to get this suit head finished.
I've been working on it since last August and it has been taking me a while to finish because of irl stuff.

Eyes 👀
I'm thinking of making them magnetic and removable just so they don't get damaged if I need to clean the suit

#fursuit #art #furryart #bugoc #oc
A pair of fursuit eyes. They are brown with a black oval pupil and white highlights. The design is printed onto some mesh which is then cut to a round shape and a plastic dome is glued on top.

I've worked on it a bit more after taking these photos so they're not up to date, but I've been working on a beetle fursuit for the past few months :)
Based off the species Carabus coriaceus.
Tried to make the mouthparts as accurate as I can with this style.

Every time I see a business using gen ai, such as ai images, to do things like make advertisements or to design a logo or products etc, it really puts me off from supporting them. It just really rubs me the wrong way to see people supporting the usage of such technology as an artist myself.

Got bored and drew a bunch of random monster/demon designs yesterday.
#art #traditionalart
A page of traditional drawings done with a blue ballpoint pen. There is a drawing of a horned demon in a suit, a drawing of a weird serpent like creature with sharp teeth and three eyes, a small bird like creature, a worm with a bow tied around it, a large creature with black beady eyes and a gaping mouth, a demon with long horns and wearing a skull and a bird with an eye in its mouth.

I was looking through the ibis paint app on my phone and found this little guy I drew early last year..

Its mandibles are a pale yellow with brown tips. Its eyes are lit up with white highlights. It looks happy. It has long brown antenna sticking up out of its head. It has a red collar and is wagging its long pointy ovipositor as if it's a dog tail. The snake fly is saying "woof :)"

Top left- Xenos peckii
Top right - Hemiodoecus leai
Bottom left - Hymenopus coronatus
Bottom right -Systelloderes biceps
#bugs #bugart #bug #insect #art #furryart #insectart
Rough drawing of four different species of insect. Each drawing is rough and sketchy. Top left shows a insect with large wings. It is greyish black with antenna that look a bit like antlers and has round big eyes. It has one wing spread out and the other folded behind it. Top left shows an insect that is shaped like a shield. It's eyes look as if they are on stalks and are orange. It has short yellow antenna, a grey blue thorax and a yellowish abdomen and orange legs. Bottom left shows the head of a mantis. It is white with triangular eyes that have a pink stripe pattern running straight through them. It has thin dark antenna and a protrusion on its head that looks like a crown almost. The crown is triangular with a red centre and pale outsides. Bottom right shows an insect with a long beak like mouth part. It is orange. Its head is brown and so is the neck but this changes later to red and then orange. Its wings are pale and folded over its back. It has red eyes and long antenna and a clawed hooked arm. It is bent over and looks concerned.
